Deuteronomy 18:14-16

Expanded Bible

The Lord’s Special Prophet

¹⁴ The nations you will ·force out [dispossess] listen to people who use ·magic [divination] and witchcraft, but the Lord your God will not let you do those things. ¹⁵ The Lord your God will ·give [^Lraise up for] you a prophet like me, who is one of your own ·people [relatives; brothers; ^Cultimately Jesus]. Listen to him [Acts 3:25–26; 7:37]. ¹⁶ This is what you asked the Lord your God to do when you were ·gathered [assembled] at ·Mount Sinai [Horeb; 1:6]. You said, “Don’t make ·us [^Lme] listen to the voice of the Lord ·our [^Lmy] God again, and don’t make ·us [^Lme] look at this ·terrible [great] fire anymore, or ·we [^LI] will die [5:23–27].”
